Ben Stiller Unpacks That Pivotal Irving and Burt Scene in ‘Severance’ Episode 9
Ben Stiller explains that pivotal train station scene between Irving and Burt in 'Severance' Season 2, Episode 9.
The star-crossed lovers, played by John Turturro and Christopher Walken, share a dramatic goodbye at a train station. He seems to lie about how long he had worked at the company and admits to being a “scoundrel,” telling Irving that he decided to get severed after a priest told him his innie would be judged separately from his outie and would therefore have a shot at going to heaven. (To make things creepier, Burt and Fields affectionately calls each other “Atilla,” in both a play on the pet name “hon” and a reference to the murderous ruler of the Huns.)
